ABX Air Hiring
#221
Talked to interviewer about their needs. They have to get guys in class as soon as possible. We will double in under two years. If you were offered a class date initially , don't sweat it. Note: make sure you send the thank you letter...keeps your name in the mind of HR.
Thanks

I've been following this thread because I have always had a lot of respect for the ABX guys. I used to jumpseat on them from PHX to BDL when my boys were growing up. Always treated great on the jumpseat, although the procedures and briefings were a shock to me, since we did everything by flows with minimal checklists at AWA. The ex Eastern guys told me about the training but that they were making progress on changing the hit an mentality. Glad to see that happened.
I actually interviewed there in 1984. I was low time, 2400 hours with no ATP and did not get the call. I was flying for Zantop at the time and thought the YS11 was a step up from the Convair. I am glad to see things are looking up for you guys. I totally get the esprit de corps you have. We had it at AWA. When you are successful at a difficult job you get a great sense of pride and accomplishment.
And MMMX? That ILS coming in from the North always gets you high and fast if you are not on top of it. That's a tight turn over 160kts.
